This is a FAQ:

> 2. Can I use copy\cut\paste text with mouse in the console?

This text was copied from an xterm and pasted into another.

> 4. Can I copy mouse options for X from Linux?

XFree86 is independent of the OS, so I would imagine you can.

> 3. How do I copy\cut\paste text in Vim?

This is one of many tutorials on Vim.  If it's installed on your system,
you probably have somewhat extensive documentation installed locally.
